    No kick, just overheard a couple of British Gas guys (door-knockers I believe) mention it in public.

    Thought it may be of interest here.

    No announcements; hardly worth setting up a new account for a non-story.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    Actually, the story is completely true. Though I'm not convinced by the OPs tale about where they got it from :)

    But we need more information and a link to the source, to be able to adequately debate the issue.

    Well, there's now an official MSE article and discussion thread on it. That proves it pretty conclusively I'd say...

    Seeing as that thread was open only a few minutes ago, one could hardly be expected to have tracked it down.
